2K has dropped a new launch trailer for the imminent release of strategy game Marvel’s Midnight Suns this Friday.

The trailer sets the scene for the superhero adventure – and also reveals the game’s final playable character in the form of Bruce Banner’s alter-ego – Hulk.

Hulk will naturally be a powerhouse character – unlocked a little later into the game than many of the other heroes – but will be a formidable force to be reckoned with for any squad.

Check out the launch trailer below.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns release date

Marvel’s Midnight Suns will launch on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC on December 2, 2022. Launch timing for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch versions will be announced at a later time.

Those who pre order the game can get a special Doctor Strange Defenders Skin. Check out the new gameplay trailer below.

The game was originally set to release in October, but was delayed to an – up until now – unknown date within this fiscal year.

2K has also released a series of animated shorts, focused around several of the characters and providing backstory ahead of the game’s release.

They include Lilith, Blade, Magik, Ghost Rider and Nico Minoru- the core Midnight Suns. There’ll be five videos in total, with the first premiering on October 31 on the Marvel Entertainment YouTube channel.

Creative director Jake Solomon said the following on the shorts. “”In Marvel’s Midnight Suns, we knew we had a really cool opportunity to dive deep into the dark side of Marvel and introduce some supernatural heroes that may be new to many Marvel fans.”

“Marvel’s Midnight Suns Prequel Shorts shed light on the events leading up to the game and really brings the world of Marvel’s Midnight Suns to life.”
